  This book is brilliant. It has sent me on a course I am glad to be on. I can see the truth in all of it, and Know it for my self. For all those who are dubious about this, or think it's rubbish, I can sense/see the spirit force in nature, it's very hard to put into words, but I wouldn't replace that for a million quid, I find my self more interested in the nature outside the window than the tv I am watching. Really don't like TV at all now and used to lean on it like most. I sometimes ask whether it's delusional, but know it is not, you just have to experience it for yourself like so many others are. One of the best if not the most important reads of my life. Hope you can see for youself

  This book has changed my life along with Eckhart's other publications.
  
  I was very skeptical at first, as I considered myself to be non religious and not spiritual and didn't think I could relate to this sort of stuff.
  
  My initial 'though' could not have been more wrong. I hardly ever read books but could not put this one down. I read it at a time when I had recently moved to the other side of the world, then within a few days, I was let down badly by my girlfriend, resulting in a breakup and quit a new job in which I felt was not for me. Prior to this I suffered from ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome after an undiagnosed spinal cord injury.
  
  After my resent disappointment I felt extremely lonely, depressed and a failure. A couple of friends had recommended the book and I went out and bought it. I read this book in less than 2 days.
  
  The effect it had on me was overwhelming and life changing! I was able to move on from my "life story" with ease as I found presence and contentment with very few forms in my life. I realised that my life was not my thoughts and that I had been obsessed and locked in thinking for as long as I can remember, resulting in so much pain and suffering.
  
  I have now been able to feel presence and live in happiness for the past 3 months. I no longer feel lonely, I have seen how my ego and my painbody has in the past has had such a detrimental effect on my life.
  
  If you want to be liberaed from pain, suffering and any other kind of unhappiness then go and buy this book. Many of my friends have either borrowed my book or bought a copy and have have experienced similar liberation and freedom from their dysfunctional minds.
  
  This book enabled me to find the off button for the thinking part of my mind. Without thinking about the past and future, there is no suffering and pain.
  
  Thank you Eckhart.

  I purchased this on the strength of previous reviews and because I have been going through depression. Well - a great cure for my insomnia! How this writing can be described as "clear" is beyond me. I consider myself a fairly intelligent person but this book is hard hard work. Long badly constructed sentences using 20 words when 5 would have been ample, you have to read everything 3 times to get any idea of the meaning. The words used are long, difficult and unnecessary(keep a dictionary handy). I handed it to my husband to ask "is it me"? He has an M.A. from Cambridge, has practised law for 25 years and is incredibly intelligent. He read several pages at various places throughout the book and shook his head - his comment was my heading "intellectual snobbery". It means little, words put together in no format and no "real" situations explained. I would advise anyone who wants help on this subject to read CBT for Dummies - a page and a half in that book on "mindfulness" did more for me than this whole book - a waste of money and time - but as I say great cure for insomnia.

  I read this book several years ago. Yes it is enthusiastic and easily accesible and very convincing BUT I don't believe it was written out of any profound knowledge nor from true enlightenment. I felt it was at best a simplified version of Krishnamurti's writings, which I may struggle with but find deeply insightful. So yes as an introduction to more sincere & profound spiritual writing it has it's place. Tolle does have a story to tell, but it is not that unique. There is a difference between simplification coming from deep wisdom and that from inexperience ( I guess the same can be said for more complicated texts too!) and knowledge truely lived and that which is just an exchange of words. Dissappointing considering all the hype, especially from circles, who in my opinion, should know better.
